Boiling to ice does stress the glass, even perfectly annealed glass. This is exactly why Visions cookware came with a warning not to take it off the stove and put it in cold water.

The test is meaningless *because* it introduces stress to the glass. That's why I think it's extreme. It doesn't measure anything.
